Philosophical Questions to Deepen Your Relationship

Maybe you’re looking to deepen your relationship, or maybe you’re trying to hash out something unknown about your significant other. Philosophical questions are inherently deep in nature and should help unravel someone at a much deeper level.

These questions should give you personal clarity on certain characteristics of the person you are opening up a dialogue with.

Famous French philosopher Voltaire stated that you should, “judge a man by his questions, rather than his answers.”

I believe this to be true. Look for the intricacies of their response, rather than the direct answer. With some of these questions, you will see people start to question themselves. It’s just as important to gauge their response and how they came to it as the response itself. By you asking these questions correctly you will come off as introspective and intelligent, rather than imposing.

By asking correctly I mean, without judgment or lack of appropriate response. In fact, the person you are asking them to might enjoy it simply for the catharsis answering these questions can give. The person also will feel more connected the more they personally get to know you and the more they expose deep inner-feelings to you.

All people are different, and act differently for a number of reasons. In biology I was taught that a person is formed partly by nature, and partly by nurture.

These philosophical questions should help get the answers of the nurture side of that equation.

Life is a journey filled with crazy experiences that form us into who we are. It’s extremely important to know about these experiences when trying to get to know someone. Everybody has a story, and everybody has deep hidden answers to even the most difficult questions. It’s easy enough to know where someone was born, and what their parents did for work, but how far does that really get you into knowing them?

Take The Quiz: Is He Losing Interest?

Sure, growing up in Beverly Hills would make you have a much different perspective on the world than someone raised in rural Kansas, but to me relationships are truly about what’s on the inside of the person, not just the basic external facts. It shouldn’t matter who someone is or where they are from, it should matter who they are on the inside!

These questions will help get you to the root of that question and give you a much deeper knowledge of the person you are talking too.

Meaning of Life

If your life became a movie what would it be about and what would the title be?

Is it possible to ever fully get over someone or is there some mark indelibly left on our psyche by unrequited love?

Is there one thing that would be a deal-breaker, no matter how much you loved someone?

Asking questions like these is great because you not only get to know someone else on an entirely new level, but you’ll get to know yourself a bit better as well.

These are some seriously deep, and thought-provoking questions that should inspire some unforgettable conversations.

Just remember never to come off as being critical about an answer, and to have basic respect with the simple knowledge that we are all different!

Getting to know someone on a highly personal level is never easy, and takes time, so don’t pressure any responses that you see making the other person feel uncomfortable. The goal is to make them feel like they are understood, and even if you don’t understand, to set yourself up in a position where you’ll be able to dig deeper if need be. If you get any unwanted answers, or answers that change your mind about that person, don’t worry, you’re not a natural fit. Who they are inside obviously has nothing to do with you! Listen to their answers, but just as important, look at the way they answers them, and try to discover the internal questions they’re asking himself!

There are 2 big turning points every woman experiences in her relationships with men and they determine if you end up in a happy relationship or if it all ends in heartbreak.

So pay attention because the next step to take is vitally important. At some point he’s going to ask himself if you are the woman he wants to commit himself to for the long term…

Do you know how men determine if a woman is girlfriend material (the type of woman he commits himself to) or if he sees you as just a fling? If not, you need to read this next: The #1 Thing Men Desire In A Woman…

And the second big problem many women face: Do you feel he might be losing interest, going cold emotionally or pulling away? If so, then you need to read this right now or risk losing him forever: If He’s Pulling Away, Do This…

asking your partner these type of questions is one best example to show him that you are interested in him. you both can get a deeper connection just by taking the time to ask each other these questions.

my mom is a relationship expert and she said this article is a good read. she told me that these are very meaningful questions that partners can ask each other every day so that they remain interested in each other.

i personally believe that talking about your future with a guy will best give you a glimpse of what he’s really up to. most men would freak out if they’re not really serious about you. and only the serious ones will give you the answers to your questions.
